09 Dezembro 2024 - 8:30AM
Parsons Corporation (NYSE:PSN) announced today that the company has
been awarded a $53 million, three-year contract by the Royal
Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) in Saudi Arabia for program
management office (PMO) services on its Main and Ring Roads
Program.
“We are proud to call the RCRC a long-standing
client of ours and are honored to be working on the Main and Ring
Roads Program alongside them,” said Martin Boson, Senior Vice
President and General Manager of Parsons' Saudi Arabian operations.
“With Riyadh being the most populated city in Saudi Arabia, the
Program plays a fundamental role in facilitating the smooth
mobility of people and vehicles within the city in the safest and
most efficient way possible.”
Under the contract, Parsons will be the PMO for
all new major road development programs in Riyadh, providing
overall management and control of construction activities. The
program includes approximately 500km (about 310 miles) of new and
improved road corridor works. Key objectives of the program are to
keep the city moving during construction and also to meet the
requirements associated with the growth plans for the City of
Riyadh, including tackling congestion and hosting global events
such as the Expo 2030 and FIFA World Cup 2034. Upon completion, the
new road network will reduce hours lost in traffic, leading to
improved average trip durations and enhanced connectivity across
the city.
RCRC is responsible for delivering several
megaprojects in Riyadh which are being developed by government
agencies who have been tasked with realizing the country’s Vision
2030 programs.
Parsons has been working with RCRC for over a
decade on projects including the city transportation masterplan for
Riyadh and has provided program and construction management
services for the King Abdulaziz Project for Riyadh Public
Transport, with the Riyadh Metro as the centerpiece along with a
new bus network. The Main and Ring Roads Program will provide a
critical interfacing layer within this transformational,
multi-modal system.
Parsons has been a trusted partner in delivering
critical infrastructure in Europe and the Middle East for over 65
years and currently has more than 50 active projects in Saudi
Arabia.
With a regional team of more than 6,500
employees, Parsons brings deep domain expertise across urban and
destination development, transport infrastructure and smart
mobility, industrial and commercial development, asset management,
sustainability, and resilience in the Kingdom.
